It appears Parker Devine's senior season has hurt his recruiting process. UConn, Indiana, Purdue, Cincy, Miss State, Pitt, Rutgers and WV all courted his commitment last spring and now best I can see he is deciding between Tulane and Army. Back in Sept/October he stated Indiana and Miss State were is leaders, but neither school seems to be still recruiting him anymore...nor is any P6 program other than Navy and Tulane.

"I need to talk to the coach, but I might be able to go to Tulane this weekend; if not, I’m going in January.
"Also, maybe Middle Tennessee State, Army, Georgia Southern and WKU."

3-star D-Lineman Parker Devine to Make Full Use of Official Visit Process

Interesting that we appear to have moved on as well.

Is that Travis Jones pictured with Webb and Paul? If so, he doesn't look 340lbs.
 
Anybody else see this?

Extremely honored to receive an offer from Kansas State University!!!! #BUCO

Kaymar Mimes (DL) and Daevon Robinson (WR/TE) took OV at Rutgers this weekend. FWIW, Rutgers has as many as 5 WR already in this class depending on how their athletes break. Meanwhile Kaymar seems like a heavy Rutgers lean. Mimes and Robinson are two of the three highest rated uncommitted recruits left in NJ.

And Steve Shaw (DE) down in Texas is a bit of a mystery, but worth noting he is playing in the state championship game this week for powerhouse Manvel.
 
The known DL prospects we have either offered or kicked the tires on that remain uncommitted: Its likely we are taking just two more.
  • Metz <--well known situation
  • Shaw <--mystery man playing in a TX state final game this week
  • Kromah <--did he visit? had 27 sacks in senior year. seems like exactly the guy to replace Mimes.
  • Connors <--met with Lashlee, nothing more has come from it.
  • Sanders <--does he have a leader?

And some others maybe we should be considering:

I never view guys that are tweeners at DE/TE/OT as a defensive guy... History has shown we haven't either .. They've all gone to OL or TE...

here's hoping a combo of any of the true DEs commit... I figure we need 2 (DE is one of our thinnest positions, along with RB)...

But when I look around the landscape, it seems that there are a lot of good looking RBs. The RB position might be one of the easier to fill. DT and DEs is a toughy.

@noeynox - is this what you were trying to post?

Jon Maloy Burkett is a 6-6 276lb (6-7 wingspan) T/G from White County High School in Cleveland Georgia. Has a PWO offer from Liberty.

Highlights

From RecruitGeorgia.com:

>>Burkett was very raw a year ago but spent the offseason working with a lineman speciliast. First most obvious sign of improvement is how active his hands are – he is getting much better leverage on his opponent now. He is firing off the ball pretty well, and has just completely changed his mindset out there on the field. He is a lot more aggressive that is for sure. Obviously his upside is pretty good, and he’s working hard to continue his progress. Very impressive senior year, he has been consistent every game, against all competition. He is also showing a ton more leg drive, getting on his toes and driving the lineman out of the play.<<

It will be interesting to see if the staff can keep Noah Plack-Tallerico from signing up on his Delaware commitment on 12/20. That kid looks awesome as either a TE or OLB, but I would go with OLB given his less than ideal stature for TE.

Need to get him up here in January.

Anyways, the offense and defense can fight over him.
 
Medic,
Why does Troy Ingle keep showing as offer? Still a WKU commit? Still a possibility ( which until signing day is so, I realize)? Is he waivering?

That's why he has a different color. He was offered by UConn while a WKU commit, so in the past - I've kept this "category" of players separate until they sign an NLI somewhere. He is waivering as he is taking official visits to other schools - not sure how much UConn is still in the picture (his or UConn's)
 
As for Connor Parks, it’s been weird for weeks now the way he is campaigning for himself on twitter.

I've taken myself off of Twitter so I haven't been following it. But 247 has Southern Miss listed as a favorite with UConn and Syracuse being listed as "warm". I wonder what info out there is resulting in the Southern Miss lean? Hopefully we can swoop in and get both him and Kromah on the DE spots...
